Hobgoblin Encounter

They travel into the forest on foot and encounter two hobgoblins. After the fight in which both hobgoblins fall, they search them and find: studded leather x 2; shield (taken by Quinn); 2 long swords and 2 javelins. They decide to leave the weapons behind (apart from the shield). They also find 3 gold pieces, a tiny brass flute (held by Dworin) and a necklace of mouse skulls.

The Giant Worm Attack

They continue walking and come across a large hole in the ground that slopes into the earth. The sides are covered in a gooey substance so Lady Amyra suggests that they throw down the brass flute to see if anything reacts. Quinn casts LIGHT on the flute before it’s thrown down the hole. There is a chamber at the bottom and Tyro climbs down to it. A giant worm appears and attacks Tyro. Gus casts CELESTIAL OWL which attacks the word. Lady Amyra shoots at the worm but misses. The worm shoots its barb at the owl and hit it; it then takes a chunk out of Tyro causing 5 points of damage. The own falls to the ground near Tyro. Bialer shoots two arrows and hits the worm causing its barb to drop as well as its head.

The group has problems getting down the slope into the cavern. Dworin almost falls but Lady Amyra manages to grab hold of him. The cavern contains skeletal remains which are scattered about. Quinn manages to get down to the cavern and Bialer carries Tyro toward Quinn who casts CURE MODERATE WOUNDS and removes the paralysis that was inflicted upon Tyro. Bialer cuts the barb off the worm’s tail and hands it to Tyro before they both manage to get out of the cavern. Lady Amyra makes sure that Tyro is okay. Everyone else manages to get out of the cavern and they keep heading north.
